Advertising
consists simply in pre-
senting before the people
the goods you have to sell
in an intelligent manner,
whether it is a house and
lot or a pair of shoes. It
is too late at this day to
expatiate on the merits of
advertising. That has
been demonstrated so of-
ten that iteration is futile.
Everybody days
knows that advertising
pays. The main question
what medium to use?
now
is,
Advertising experts long
ago settled it by declar-
ing that newspaper adver-
tising was by far the most
effective and brings better
returns than any other
extant. The merchants
of this section long ago
declared that better re-
sults were obtained by
using the CourIER than
by any other means. It
is read every week by
hundreds of families and
goes into the homes of the
majority of the people of
Northern Cambria county.
The rates are low, just
and equitable—one price
to all and the small ad-
vertiser gets just as good
a rate as the large one.

Mloep, my beloved, To sleep and dream is Sesh
The night to us is peace, the day unrest,
Por day, while parted, brings to us but pais;
In dreams we live the dear past o'er again.
We weep sot in our sleep;
Our toars are for the day,
Which smiles, while I but weep,
For thou art far away.
Wushed be the voices of the garish day,
Ite frets and cares and sorrows swept away;
Forgotten quite the interval of yeurs
Since last we met, with all their bitter teas
Sleep, love. To dream is best.
Our waking is but pain;
In sleep alone we rest
And live the past again,
Bleep, my dear love, and be thy dreams of mel
Waking or slecpivg, I still think of thee,
But drea ns make present time of all the past;
The might restores thee—would my dreams might |
last!
Dream, dear, till the day breaks
And earthly shadows flee,
Where morn to grief ne'er wakes
And | be one with thee.

The Unconscious Rumor That Crop
Out In the Green Isle,
The author of “Irish Life and Char
acter” says truly that one has only |
to mix with an Irish crowd to hear |
nocently uttered. As the Duke and |
old woman remarked:
“Ah! Isn't it the fine receptior |
they're gettin, goin away?”
In 1892 Dublin university celebrated |
its tercentenary, and crowds of vis!
itors were attracted to the city. Twa
laborers, rejoiced at the general prow |
perity, expressed their feelings.
“Well, Tim,” said one, “thim tar
cintinaries does a dale for the thrade
“OL. faix they do!” said the other.
“And whin, with the blessia of God,
we get home rule, sure we can have as
manny of thim as we piase.”
An old woman, seeing a man pulling
a young calf roughly along the road,
exclaimed:
“Oh, you bla’guard! That's no way
to thrate a fellow crather.”
“Sure,” said a laborer to a young
lady who was urging him to send his
children te school, “1' 1 do anything for
such a sweet, gintlemanly lady as
| yourself.”
Again, the laborers on a large estate
decided that it would be more con.
venient for them if they could be paid
every week instead of every fortnight
One of their number was sent to place
| their proposition before the land agent.
and this was his statement:
| “If you please, sir, it's me desire
| and it is also lvery other man’s desire,
tha we resave out fortnight's pay
ivery week.”
An exasperated sergeant, drilling a
| squad of recruits, called to them at
| last:
| “Halt!”

Manila as a beautifully caparisoned

gentleman. The driver reined his
steeds, and the sentry, standing firmly

| “Who is there?”
Not knowing what else to say, the
| occupant of the carriage answered,
“Judge Taft, president of the civil

The settler closed the front door aft:

was used to sleeping in the open air,
went softly to it and cpened it. The
owner of the house waited until Robi-
doux was in bed again, and the settler
closed it. That was repeated a dozen
times. “The next time that door is
closed there will be trouble,” said the
man who had founded St. Joseph. He
resumed his couch with that.
The owner of the house closed the
door, and Robidoux met him as he was
returning to his bed. They clinched
and fought by the light of the moon
that came in through the window. It
was a hard fight and lasted a long
time, but at last Robidoux had the set-
tler on his back and sat astride of him.
He tangled his hands in his bair and
bumped his head against the puncheon
floor. “Open or shut?’ he asked. The
settler struggled, but did not say a

times, and the question was repeated.

King Richard In a Kitchen,
“Actors of the old school did not
fave the gorgeous stage settings
present,” sald a veteran stage manager
the other night as he gazed af the stage
in Ford's Opera House while in 8
reminiscent mood. “I remember once
we were playing southern towns with
Bdwin Booth and wanted to put on
‘Richard II’ No special scenery was
earried for this, and I was told to look
sver the stock at the theater to see if
there was any that could be used.
The second scene called for ‘the en
trance of the king and all his couriers
‘nto a royal hall. 1 picked out a set
of scenery that I thought would de
for the pa'tace, but cautioned the stage
hands not to get it on wron out.
Well, the scene was finished, and
when the stage was disclo sed for the
second there was hii typical old kitche-
en scene, the one with hams hanging
from the rafters, a candlestick on the
mantel and all that. 1 was horrified
and asked Mr. Booth if we should
change it by ringing down the curtain
fe said no, he would go on, but he
cautioned the other players to ‘keep
your eyes on me; don’t under any con-
sideration look behind you at the scen
ery.’
“Well, the scene went off, and after
ward, when I asked some of those in
the front of the house, they made nrc
comment, and I was convinced that in
the intensity of the acting they had not
noticed that the king was in the kitch-
